Painting Lights

[sandmaster]

We have a small model Christmas scene with LED lights, which are clear glass and far too bright. Is it possible to paint them? I have searched the internet for suitable paint without success.

You could try this, but no personal experience. LED lights do not give of much heat.

Thanks both.

Have checked for those pens in Hobbycraft and no there, any acrylic glass/ceramic paint pens will do the job.

Have you thought of reducing the voltage applied to the LEDs which will reduce the light level output?

Pebeo glass paint is very good they do a white frosted one. Or use the rose pink for a soft glow

Used to do glass painting and sell it at craft fairs. It's the brand I always used.
